"Reliability is the main reason we do business with AT&T," said Andy Pulliam, director of Information Systems of Ducks Unlimited. "Our business operations rely heavily on e-mail, as most businesses do today, and we need a provider we can count on.

"In addition, our Web site is a key way of keeping in touch with our 700,000 members. After doing business with others in the past, we can really appreciate the value of AT&T."
